New information on Sioux City man's body found on I-29

NEAR WHITING, Iowa (KTIV) - Some new information on the body of a Sioux City man found along Interstate 29 early Tuesday morning.

At this point agents with the Department of Criminal Investigation aren't releasing a lot of information, what they have told us is that 46-year-old John Charles Wakefield's body was found near mile marker 124 of northbound I-29 at around 1:43 Tuesday morning.

An autopsy had been scheduled for Wednesday, but D.C.I. says it could be up to a month before they might learn anything from that report.

Agents with D.C.I. say it appears that Wakefield had been hit by at least one motor vehicle.

Investigators are currently conducting interviews, but they say they need your help.
